  • Press Clips October 2, 2013 Youthful Sabres Open in Detroit Wednesday Associated Press October 1, 2013
    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips October 2, 2013 Youthful Sabres open in Detroit Wednesday Associated Press October 1, 2013 Sabres coach Ron Rolston is reminded of the changes taking place in downtown Buffalo every day he heads into work. There’s a construction site across the street from the team’s arena, where Sabres owner Terry Pegula’s HarborCenter hotel and entertainment complex is being erected. Then there’s the major overhaul the Sabres themselves have been undergoing over the past eight months. They’re both works in progress, and also reflect the potential of a brighter future in Buffalo. “I would say it’s a good correlation and analogy,” Rolston said. “It’s both out front and in the arena.” Rolston is part of the Sabres’ transformation in replacing longtime coach Lindy Ruff, who was fired in February. The changes didn’t end there during what became a tumultuous, lockout- shortened season that ended with Buffalo missing the playoffs for the fourth time in six years. Before the season was over, the Sabres purged much of their old guard — including captain Jason Pominville — as part of a youth movement to shake up what had been an aging, high-priced and under-achieving core. And more changes could still be store, with goalie Ryan Miller and forward Thomas Vanek’s futures uncertain beyond this season. Both are entering the final years of their contracts, and the Sabres haven’t ruled out trading one or both. That’s left Rolston tempering his early expectations of an opening-day roster that could feature as many as seven rookies, including 18-year-old defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen.

For the last two weeks at the Sochi Winter Olympics, the Nepali, Singaporean-Brit and Tongan were Olympian athletes. Although, not necessarily very good ones. The Olympics, summer or winter, always throw up tales of unknown athletes rubbing shoulders with the world??s best. Who doesn??t love an underdog? Except that not all underdogs are born equal. Some, like Sherpa, struggle for years, with little resources, for the privilege of representing their country at the Games. Others, with endless resources, will buy their way into the Games and represent any country that will have them. When it comes to these ??tourist?? athletes, the Sochi Olympic Games might just have jumped the shark. The Winter Olympics, with its inherently smaller pool of athletes, is in danger of becoming a destination event for anyone with a bit of cash and a country willing to pass on its citizenship.

There would be time to snap out of it, there wouldn’t be a huge buildup of pressure and they could just play without worrying about “what ifs?” The Blue Jackets have only nine games left in the regular season, however, and they need to start scoring more consistently in their hunt for the playoffs.
